HMS ''Abeille'' was a French Navy 14-gun cutter launched in 1793 under the name ''Bonnet Rouge'' that captured in 1796. She was taken into the Royal Navy as HMS ''Abeille'', but apparently never served and was broken up in 1798. ==French service and capture== ''Abeille'' was a ''Montagne''-class cutter built to a design by Daniel Denÿs and launched in October 1793 at Saint-Malo as ''Bonnet Rouge''. Between March and July 1795, while under the command of ''ensigne de vaiseau'' Denis, she cruised between Brest and Loctudy, and return. She then cruised in the Gulf of Gascony with the division under the command of Contre-Admiral Vence.〔 She was at the First Battle of Groix in June 1795, but like all the smaller vessels, did not participate in the action.〔''Fonds Marine'', p.146.〕 She was officially renamed ''Abeille'' on 30 May 1795. Later, under the command of ''lieutenant de vaisseau'' Denis-Lagarde, she was stationed at the Île de Batz.〔 On 2 May 1796, ''Dryad'', under Acting-Commander John Pullin, captured ''Abeille'' some 16 or 17 leagues off The Lizard. At the time, ''Abeille'' was three days out of Brest and had not taken anything. The Royal Navy took her into service under her existing name. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「HMS Abeille (1796)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
